Thanks for the help friends. Everything sounds little complicated for now, I'll install Android once I get a clear idea of the process.
[Android Development on Bada] NinosM1:
if you want to overclock your phone to 1.3/1.4 STABLE (batery wont go empty faster ) id flash it with the rooter version :D
[Android Development on Bada] Razyre:
The process looks complicated at first, but it's surprisingly easy.

I don't know that using this process you can actually brick your phone. Brick the firmware, easily, but Download Mode always work and reflashing is easy as 1.. 2.. 3!
[Android Development on Bada] nbates66:
true, but if your overclocking hardware, you almost always have some small risk of damaging hardware in the long term, even when not raising the voltage.

i find my wave will get hot enough on a hot day without getting overclocked, temperatures DO rise also from frequency increase alone, continuous exposure to increased temperatures can shorten hardware life, people should really think carefully before overclocking.
[Android Development on Bada] Razyre:
I wasn't referring to overclocking ;)

I should've been more specific.

I personally think it's pretty ridiculous overclocking a mobile device... There is next to no extra cooling and the components are packed into a tight case. Sure, as an experiment but it's stupid to have it permanent. Hell people don't overclock laptop CPU's and they have better cooling than phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Crazcarl:
What is the difference of rooting and boot unlocking? i'm new in android community. thnx for help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Deleted member 3693611:
Rooting or gaining root access is like getting on windows with administrator rights and not plain user rights. With root you can change almost everything that has to do with your software that normally is locked up to prevent normal users from breaking anything important to the system!

And in order to gain root access you have to unlock the boot loader which is kind of like a door to the kernel. You can see the boot loader and kernel kind of like BIOS on a computer.

Hope that helped

So my phone now sets itself to pacific timewhen automatic is selected even though I am in Arizona.

Any idea why this happened overnight? My alarm woke me up an hour late today because my phone says its 830 when its actually 930....

I can manually set the timezone, but what the hell happened? It just keeps going back to pacific on auto..
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
It's a known issue. I think it has to do with which tower it uses. Can;t hurt to call Verizon and bug them so they'll figure it out once and for all.

Oh wait... it can hurt. When someone else called them 4g went down, presumably when they were trying to fix it. So you should just live with it. :p

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code_311:
I am curently running a Rom that I can't get to work right. The major features that I like are the lockscreen and the camera.

Is it possible to extract the .apk from the current Rom and a) install the apk on a new Rom, or b) create a flashable zip with the apk's, or c) insert/replace the apk's into the new Rom before flashing?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demarcmj:
I don't think it's possible for the lockscreen since I'm pretty sure that's not an apk. It may be possible for camera, but I'm not sure. I'll let some smarter people weigh in on that.

It would probably help if you said the ROM you're running (the one that has the camera and lock screen that you like) and maybe even the ROM you're switching to. That way, even if it's not possible, people can still recommend some alternatives.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code_311:
After further research, theoretically its possible. There is sense 3.0 lockscreen and camera apk's pulled from the EVO, but I don't know if they work on the DINC yet. What I'm wondering now is if I pull the apk from my 2.1/3.0 sense Rom that I'm on now, will it work on the Stock plus (2.1) Rom.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code_311:
I'm on Inc2McTwist. Just didn't want to make Oomcdoo or anyone else mad if I was talking about taking stuff from his ROM to customize my phone. I really like his black themed lock ring, and the sense 3.0 camera has more features, is easier to use and in my opinion takes better pictures than the stock DINC camera.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SynisterWolf:
it is possible but:

You would need to edit the framework-res.apk and com.htc. resource.apk to make the camera and lock screen work from a 3.0 to a 2.1 rom. its not as simple as installing the apk. with sense everything is tied together. sorry. :/
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code_311:
That's what I was afraid of. I was maybe hoping I could extract what I needed. Wish I knew how to dev ;-(
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] code_311:
I guess I'll have to use something like Agile Lock. And wait until someone makes it easier to get the updated camera ported to our dinc.

Have you seen a decrease in battery life?,, If not, don't worry about it..

The battery "uses" will change all the time.. depending on what you are doing with the phone from day to day..

If its draining your battery abnormally... look further into it.. If not, don't worry.:)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 0x20:
I have a friend who has the standard galaxy s2 (not skyrocket) from at&t. He said that when he upgraded from 2.3.5 to 2.3.6, his battery life went from having to charge once every two days to barely making it through the day. He said it was directly related to that fact, and although I have no data to say that's true on the skyrocket, it gave me enough reason to install a 2.3.5 ROM on my phone. I've not really noticed a difference to be honest, but it's something I am trying for now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dac1227:
I get this same problem, it comes and goes across different roms, radios, OS versions.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jarbings:
Hi,

my microSd card doesn't slide fully into the case. The original plastic card is 2 mm short and has been fine tuned that it is cut at the end, so it does not stuck out.

So with card inserted i feel it with my left hand it looks out of the device.

Anybody that has a card that fits perfect?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xzombiex66:
mine used to until I sanded down the edge :D, so now it doesnt.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] duckied:
Its normal
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] djsaad1:
mine seems even with the volume rocker, doesn't stick out passed that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
May be normal, but it is bunk. You can hit the card and I fear losing it as it sticks out a lot IMHO. Bad design.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Jarbings:
i just pulled mine out of the TF101 that fitted perfect there and now i also fear loosing it etc.

Just crap, there is no excuse for me. Especially if it where somewhere else where you do not hold it it would not be so boring.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] richB7:
My microSD sticks out of the slot too. Didn't do that on the original TF101 but with this one it's too easy to hit it by accident and have it fall out. I did that yesterday and happened to see that it was not latched in, ready to fall out. I compared the card with the blank insert and the blank is quite a bit smaller. You can sand down the excess I guess?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
BUT in sanding warranty on the card is gone and I would think you would have to worry about heat build up damaging it in some way unless you went slow - don't use a dremel :) Plus, be mindful of the dust and introducing that into the cards metallic slots.

Nevertheless, sanding is a hack and not sure why they did not recess the slot more to be flush as it is totally not flush. Not even close.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
That annoys me and also the sd card on the bottom taskbar annoys me. I wish I could remove that icon.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SteveG12543:
It bugs me too... I know I have an SD card in, I PUT IT THERE! Lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
This is the kind of stuff that unlocked bootloaders and root can do. Someone can tweak the files or hack a fix to remove that notification - just like they have already made a hack to remove the permanent google search on the home screen seen now in ICS. It also annoys me as it is not a logical place for it. And hell, we already know we have a card it... we can feel the damn thing sticking up :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Wordlywisewiz:
Okay listen to me this is the standard micro sd card size from the sd association

microSD, microSDHC, microSDXC

15 mm × 11 mm × 1.0 mm

Now look here on pages 13-14 the SD specifications gives them a maximum minimum and normal sizes for every single dimension on a card

http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=..._uyKAg&usg=AFQjCNHejdZXdsfJRJPcT4PEWKJqDTm2PA

so they are almost allowed a whole mm don't blame ASUS for this they designed the port for the shortest length so you can pull the card out
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
When I get my dock on Monday and add my second sd card in it will it let me know that I have 2 installed?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 1lazysheep:
can someone post a picture of how much a micro SD sticks out? why would they choose to design it like this?

then again, these are the geniuses who wrapped an all metal back over GPS and WiFi radios with no RF window :rolleyes: :confused:
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] AFSOC_Commando:
Yes, you will have two notification icons on the bottom right, and if you plug in a USB thumb drive or portable drive you will get a third. The full size SD card also sticks out of its slot further then on the OG Transformer.

I do not know which one is the best for me. I want my Galaxy SII to support Arabic english and Swedish. Swedish language has the same english alphabet plus å, ä and ö.

1. Which firmware should i chose??

2. DO i have to root my device or it is just an option??

Can i undo i i rooted my device??

3. does these firmware bellow support arabic and english and these three letters which are in Swedish å, ä and ö ?

Have been using this mount for a little over a week and can say that it is awesome. The thing I like the most is the mount. It is sticky and mounts to almost any surface, even the rounded portion of my dash. It does get dirty and needs to have some water run over it every once in a while to clean it off. The part that holds the phone is hard to use one handed, but holds the phone really well. It opens up to hold any phone and mostgps units. I picked this up on amazon for just under 20 bucks.

Bad experience!

I bought this car mount 32 days ago & It's already broken!!

I used it in my car for a Galaxy S2 device with a sunlight protector (as was recommended on exogear's site).

For the record, I'v been known for my gentle treatment for all of my things, in particular, the technological one's.

The damage was a broken grip (the one that holds the cell-phone), just near the red rubber.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1chris89:
I was wondering how you can change the file permissions for several files at once in root explorer? I copied the media/audio/ folder from another cm7 build to neutrino and moved all the files to the correct folders. Now there are so many files, i'de like to change multiple file permissions at once.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sspa:
the easiest way is to use terminal emulator or adb shell, su, then do "chmod 755 *" for permission "rwxr-xr-x" or "chmod 644 *" for permission "rw-r--r--". The permission will apply to all files since wildcard "*" is used here.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masmddr:
You would probably have more luck using a terminal and chmod.

http://www.manpagez.com/man/1/chmod/

Generally it would be something like so:

chmod augo+-rwx <file name or wildcard>

a = all (owner, groups, other)

u = user or owner

g = groups

o = other

+ to add permissions, - to remove them

r = read

w = write

x = execute

Edit:

I'm way too slow...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] igenid:

Actually Total Commander still does not do it. Change a main directory to a specific user and hit recursively, nothing happens down the directory tree. It is only to change the date recursively.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
This is a simple question. I have not seen anything similar to it when I searched the forums. When I want to wipe battery stats on my T-Mobile Vibrant using ROM manager I go to recovery mode but when I get to that screen everything displays red. Is this screen supposed to display green to assure that changes are taking effect? I've seen other people do this and the recovery screen displays green meaning the changes are taking effect and red means changes did not take effect. I don't even see a text indicating the battery stats wipe was successful or not. Can anybody shed light on this please? What am I doing wrong?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exel:
Red Recovery = Voodoo Recovery

Green Recovery = Stock CWM Recovery.

They're both pretty much the same thing, just wipe stats and it should work.

If not, download Battery Calibration from the Market and do it that way.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
Aha! good to know that. Thanks for the clarification.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RepusJonathan:
Is there a difference between flashing / doing stuff in either recovery mode?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Exel:
Not much of a difference.

Only problem you'll have is flashing a non-voodoo enabled ROM via voodoo recovery, but even at that, you can disable voodoo from voodoo recovery.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Woody:
Back to your original question, there are 3 ways to wipe battstats.

1 CWR (works but a pain to boot into recovery, clear and then reboot. Seems more than it needs to be)

2 An app (one click and easy w/o reboot)

3 Manually (use Root Explorer-get your hands dirty)

See my guide stickied in Q&A and post 3 tells all about it and has the Battery Calibrator app for download.

Bricked SGS2 Ressurection in the UK

Hi All,

Boxing day 2011 I bricked my SGS 2, yes a FULL brick as in it did nothing, it was my fault as I was tired and flashed the wrong bootloaders after trying ICS.

After the initial tears and frustration of feeling helpless I hunted around the internet for someone in the UK that did JTag restores.

I came across http://fonefunshop.co.uk and as luck would have it they had a team member online using their instant MSN chat, so I jumped on and spoke to Mark who reassured me it sounded very repairable.

The bad news was they were shut for holidays until 3rd January 2012, but none the less I felt better. I boxed the phone up after paying via Paypal and posted on Friday 30th which got it there for the 3rd.

By 1pm on the 3rd I had an email stating the phone was with them and it was waiting workbench space, I checked again a few hours later and it was on the bench... next I heard was via email on the 4th stating the phone was fixed, this was accompanied by a photo of my phone working (nice touch).

2 hours later an email arrived saying the phone was on route to me via next day delivery and sure enough, this morning at 10.30 am the phone was here.

Its not often I come across a company thats worth shouting about but this is an exception to the rule.. the guys at fonefunshop.co.uk are very professional and fast and I HIGHLY recommend them to ANYONE that has issues with their phones.

I am in no way associated with this company!!

Nice work, 10 outta 10

Basically its like flashing the BIOS on a pc.. if theres no bios the pc dont work.. they strip the phone down and attach wires all over it then flash a stock Samsung rom.
